HRH Live Featuring Adler’s Appetite

Una review del live degli A'sA a Cincinnati, opera di HardRockHideout. Seguendo il link trovate anke dei video della performance...enjoy it!

Friday night Adler’s Appetite came to Cincinnati’s Riverstar Entertainment Complex to unleash their renditions of Guns N’ Roses awesome tunes. The band features former Guns N’ Roses drummer Steven Adler, Chip Z’nuff (Enuff Z’nuff) on bass, Rick Stitch (Ladyjack) on vocals, Michael Thomas (Faster Pussycat) and Alex Grossi (Quiet Riot) on guitar.

Local bands The Mighty Swine, and A Nervous Wreck opened the show. The Mighty Swine played a cool set of original tunes. A Nervous Wreck did a good job getting the crowd revved up with a bunch of cover tunes from the bands Poison, Ratt, L.A. Guns and more.

Adler’s Appetite hit the stage about 11:oo P.M. and played a great set of tunes covering the Guns N’ Roses albums, “Appetite for Destruction”, as well as the “Use Your Illusion” albums.

Rick Stitch may not be Axl Rose, but he did a good job signing these songs. I was pretty impressed with the guitar tandem of Alex Grossi and Michael Thomas as well. Adler’s Appetite may not be anything more than a glorified cover band, but at least Steven Adler is trying to keep the Guns N’ Roses music alive and well. Until Axl Rose gets his head out of his ass and reunites the class G N’ R linuep, this is as good as it gets!

Steven (s)parla di...

Former Guns N' Roses and current Adler's Appetite drummer Steven Adler has issued the following update:

"Oh, man, this [most recent Adler's Appetite U.S.] tour was great.

"Thank you so much to everybody that came out to see us, to everybody that hung around and had all those nice things to say… Man, we played places…we played a cornfield! Iowa! They flattened a cornfield out and put in a mini-carnival. They had a semi-trailer-truck and put a PA in it, and we played the show in a fucking cornfield! It was called 'Cornstock!'

"So many great shows, great people…

"The other night in Illinois, it was so awesome playing with Warrant! I was standing right behind Steven Sweet on the drums. You know I love Jani Lane, he wrote the songs, they're amazing… I don't care what he thinks about 'Cherry Pie', it's a fucking hit and he should be happy… but their new singer, Robert Mason, he was great! I was talking to him and said, 'I would love to do some work with you.' And seeing Lita Ford, it was so wonderful hugging her and she was so nice to me. Everybody remembers everything; it was great. I didn't get to see Bret Michaels in Minnesota but I saw Big John; he's the security, the main guy on that show, 'Rock of Love'. I've known him for decades. It was wonderful seeing him, too.

"Morale within the [Adler's Appetite] band is fabulous! Ricky [vocalist Rick Stitch] did a great job! We lost him in Chicago; he went out with some chick and never came back to the bus, so he had to catch another flight to make it home. He's havin' a great time and it was a great time. I love and thank each one of the guys; Alex [Grossi; guitar], Michael [Thomas; guitar], Chippy [Chip Z'nuff; bass], they were all at the top of their game, totally professional. The people loved them, of course!

"The audiences were fabulous! We put on such a big show; it's an arena show we put out! You go see bands at clubs and bars, you don't usually see people chanting, singing along with every word with their hands and arms up in the air. Even if it's just a hundred people, it looks like so much more with all the hands in the air 'cause they all are so into it! I swear (the audience ages) were anywhere from six to sixty! I felt like a politician, I was taking pictures with babies! And girls, throughout the decades, you got better looking! I couldn't believe it, but all I can say is so many people really loved our show and said it was better than when they saw what Axl [Rose] was doin'. It's crazy, but that's the main thing I heard! So we're workin' on getting more goin', there's a few shows comin' up that's listed on here, and hey, I love you all, God bless, and thank you!"

ADLER'S APPETITE played its first show with vocalist Rick Stitch of the Los Angeles-based group LADYJACK on April 17, 2009 at the The Galaxy Theater in Santa Ana, California.

Rick has been recording with former GUNS N' ROSES guitarist Gilby Clarke, and his song "Make It Right" recently appeared in the feature film "The Grind", starring Danny Trejo and Tom Sizemore.

Singer Sheldon Tarsha announced his departure from ADLER'S APPETITE in April, saying it was "time now for me to follow my heart and continue working with my original band."

Adler was featured in "Celebrity Rehab Presents Sober House", an eight-episode, one hour series that premiered on January 15 on VH1.

Steven si è ripulito...ma continua a straparlare....

Uno Steven Adler finalmente in forma e "connesso", ha rilasciato alcune interviste.

Nonostante la forma ritrovata, il nostro Popcorn nn ha mancata di farla un po' fuori dal vaso...

Oltre alle solite accuse ad Axl, ecco la "perla":

"Ho cominciato a farmi di droghe pesanti SOLO DOPO che gli altri mi hanno cacciato dalla band"...

Si, Steven, vabbè...
